How to deal with decision paralysis (瘫痪)
If you’ve ever gone online to order something during a work break-let’s say a new electric toothbrush-expecting it to be fairly easy, but instead you found yourself overwhelmed by the huge number of choices available, you’ve experienced decision paralysis.
You’re shocked that there are so many factors to consider; not only the basics, such as price and delivery time, but there are many other factors like battery duration, warning lights for too much pressure and even fancy apps. _____16_____
This is just one example of decision paralysis-when the huge number of choices and the difficulty of weighing the supermarket up-leads you to freeze. It used to be thought that increased choice could only be a good thing for consumers and they would welcome it, but actually it can bring the opposite effect and cause people to walk away. _____17_____ Perhaps you only have two or three choices, but the risk of making the wrong decision can be paralysing, such as choosing between university places and job offers.
_____18_____ One is to recognise that there is rarely any such thing as the perfect decision. Another is to acknowledge that not making a decision is actually a decision-so don’t kid yourself that endlessly procrastinating(拖延)is the easy solution.
If you’re willing to put in the effort, a practical approach is to reduce the mental complexity involved in a decision by doing a little research. _____19_____ In the case of the toothbrush, this might be price first and then battery duration; in the case of choosing a university it might be fame first, then friends who are also planning to study there, and lastly the distance to home. Score the available choices against those factors, giving greater weight to those that are higher priority. _____20_____
A. You could always make a random choice.
B. Make some brief notes about the prior factors to you.
C. There are various ways to overcome decision paralysis.
D. You’ll end up with a score showing you the most favourable decision.
E. The clock is ticking on your break and it’s impossible to make a decision.
F. This is all that you’ll miss out on once you choose to go down a particular path.
G. In other life situations, it might be the weight of the decision that bears down on you.

With food costs rising, many people are considering starting a garden. This makes sense. Humans have been growing their own food for centuries. And gardening is truly helpful. It improves the look of your home. ____16____ Besides, it can save money.
At first thought, this might seem like an obvious win: Once you get a tomato plant going, for example, you get free tomatoes without having to always buy them. ____17____ And not all that you plant are the same in terms of cost-effectiveness. Can you really save money by growing your own food The answer is yes, but you should carefully think about it.
Firstly, do some math. ____18____ The money goes towards water, tools, and so on. According to a study, in America, most home gardens require just about $70 in the beginning. And you can expect a yearly return of about $600. Those are good numbers. But keep in mind that there are continual costs after your plants are planted. ____19____ Besides, during their growth, some of your plants will die off due to weather, animals, etc. These can affect your garden’s return to you.
___20___ Some plants are more cost effective than others. But there’s no point in planting a high-return plant if you won’t eat it. When you’re planning your garden, choose fruits and vegetables you enjoy and will actually eat. After all, to save money through gardening, you’ll need to eat what it produces.
A. Slowly, the costs will rise.
B. It provides delicious foods.
C. But gardens have hidden costs.
D. In this way, your tomatoes can be tastier.
E. Another consideration is what you plant.
F. The starting point is your cost in the beginning.
G. G For example, you’ll buy something to keep the plants growing.

Encourage Your Teens to Play More
Parents are generally aware of the importance of play for younger kids. But when kids hit the teen stage, it can be confusing to know what play looks like because kids of this age don’t engage in“play“the way younger kids do. Obviously, play changes as kids grow. And parents begin to wonder whether they should continue to encourage their teens to play. ___16___
Playfulness doesn’t go away in childhood; creativity is just as important in adolescence. Adolescence is a time of rapid brain development and self-inquiry — a stage where people can figure out who they are and where the opportunity to stretch in different directions really builds intelligence. ___17___ Furthermore, play allows people to mess up and recover and learn how to do better next time.
___18___A 2011 article in the American Journal of Play evaluated the decline of play and the rise of mental health issues in adolescents. It noted that as play declined, instances of depression, anxiety, and suicide increased. Research found that play can have a positive impact on kids’mental health by helping them to learn to make decisions, solve problems, exhibit self-control, and follow rules.
How to Encourage Play in Teens Teens feel the tension of being pulled toward adulthood while also wanting to regress (退回) toward childhood.___19___ So, one thing adults can do is model vulnerability (脆弱)and playfulness. When parents are willing to engage with teens in play, it can go a long way in encouraging them.___20___There are so many kids who are highly scheduled with lots of activities, and often what kids really need is a little downtime.
A. Mental health is another benefit of play for teens.
B. When engaged in play, teens typically feel joyful.
C. In the end, play will look different from teen to teen.
D. Sometimes it’s like they need permission to be silly again.
E. In addition, parents can offer up raw materials and the time and space to use them.
F. During this period, play can help teens grow and discover things about themselves.
G. Actually, people of all ages benefit from play, including and especially teenagers.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
It’s very common these days for people to have a gym plan. Whatever the drive behind it, it is impossible for people to take some sort of regular exercise each week.
But if you’ve never done it before, what’s the best way to go about it Well, many people make use of a PT—that’s a personal trainer. This might be because they’re wet behind the ears or maybe they just don’t want to design their own workout plan. A PT will create a proper plan for you based on your aims. 16 And, better still, they will teach you how to move in a way that won’t weaken you.
17 Each hourly session can be expensive because you have to pay both the PT and membership of the gym, too. If you are short of cash then regular sessions might be out of your budget.
So what’s left 18 It’s relatively easy to do if you have the know-how. But before you do, here are some basic pointers.
First, keep your fitness goal in mind. Are you looking to slim down, bulk up(健壮), or increase your abilities Whatever it is, make sure the things you choose to do are in pursuit of that goal. Next, do your research. These days, social media is chock-full of fitness videos and advice. Watch as many of these as possible and be a little critical of them. Finally, keep your feet on the ground. 19 It takes at least three months to see any realistic body changes. And don’t exercise too much—never work in pain—a good workout is difficult and challenging, but never painful. 20
If nothing else, focus on calisthenics(健美操)—these are the basic body movements which everyone can do anywhere, even at home.
A.Pain means you are damaging yourself.
B.They will charge you for their train work.
C.They will tailor it to your current abilities.
D.However, the trade-off with a PT is the price.
E.Be patient with yourself and set realistic goals.
F.Make sure that the place where you exercise is good.
G.Well, if you have the courage for it, you can make your own plan.

Rucking is a term used to describe a march or hike with weight. This is commonly done using a weighted backpack. It is now a popular form of physical exercise, beneficial to our body and mind. ___16___ . Here are some noteworthy things if you plan to give it a try.
Choose the right backpack
Look for a backpack that is comfortable and fits well, with enough room to carry the weight you’ll use and necessities like water. ___17___. After all, a suitable backpack is crucial to doing rucking successfully.
Add weight gradually
Some studies recommend carrying a load of 30 percent of your weight Others. however, show participants experience discomfort carrying 20 percent of their weight when exercising for more than an hour. ___18___ .
Begin with short walks and low frequency
A study on female hikers reported that many experienced negative muscle changes after just 2 km of walking. ___19___ . The same can be said for frequency. Start with one to two sessions per week, aiming to reach the recommended time per week eventually.
___20___
If you experience pain or discomfort while doing rucking take a break and adjust the weight or your posture. If such unpleasant feelings continue, stop rucking immediately and seek medical help. Never stick to rucking while feeling bad just to compare yourself with others. That actually breaks your initial intention of doing rucking.
Anyway, rucking won’t be great exercise unless you follow all the dos and don’ts for it.
A. Listen to your body
B. Stop competing with others
C. Turn to professionals for advice if necessary
D. Therefore, find the best weight for you and increase it bit by bit
E. This helps build your strength and reduce the risk of injury
F. So it’s best to plan a short route for the first few times and lengthen it slowly
G. However, like any exercise, rucking doesn’t come without risk, especially for beginners
